5th June, Update on the current situation

As you are aware, due to an increase in demand, we welcomed more children of key worker parents and carers back to school on Monday.  It was lovely to see some more smiley faces coming into school and we can’t praise the children enough for how they have embraced the new school setup and followed the rules on social distancing and increased hygiene.

We are hoping to extend our provision further from Monday 15th June to those children in F1 (Nursery), F2 (Reception) and Year 1 who had previously requested a place via the online school survey and have subsequently had a confirmation of a place.  At this time, due to capacity, we are unable to extend this offer to Year 6 however we will continue to look for ways to bring them back before the end of the school year although sadly this is not something we can guarantee at the moment.

This extension of this provision from Monday 15th June will not be confirmed however until Friday 12th June as we await medical advice from Dr Rupert Suckling, Director of Public Health Doncaster.  Parents/carers of the children who have a confirmed place in these groups will receive a phone call next Friday giving further information as well as giving an opportunity to ask any questions.

Unfortunately, I am unable to give any further information about other year groups at this time as we continue to plan on a daily basis taking into account advice from the Department For Education, Local Authority and other professionals associated with Covid 19.

Thank you for your continued support and remember to contact the school office if you have any questions or worries.  Don’t forget to encourage your child to join the weekly class hangout with their teacher too!

Have a lovely weekend and stay safe.

Mrs Ogle
